I'd like to make that one, but my parents are over from Ireland to stay with
us for a week - so for now, I'm not sure if I'll be able to get away. We
shall see...

There is a retrospective of Philippe Halsman on at the National Portrait
Gallery (Trafalgar Square) and I believe they also have an exhibition titled
The Beautiful and the Damned, examining the rise of social and celebrity
portraiture in the 19th century.

I haven't seen the Halsman exhibition myself yet, so I can't comment on it.
